The River

I live by the river and I hide my house away

Then just like the river, I can change my ways

Oh, if you come to love me, you'll stay forever

Inside my heart, inside my dreams

And time will fade, in time we'll love

In the street we walk as beggars, in the alley, faithless kings

Ah, but it's the truth of life that chains us in between

Those lost moments we steal to keep our love alive

And our prize, so tired after all the pain

And time will fade, in time we'll love

I live by the river and I hide my house away

Then just like the river, I can change my ways

Oh, if you come to love me, you'll stay forever

Inside my heart, inside my dreams

And time will fade, in time we'll love
